A truck full of Mozambican road workers. The Chinese are building roads in Mozambique in exchange for fishing rights in Mozambican waters, home to 30% of the world's population of whale sharks.
As far as I can tell these were employees of my Great Grand Parents. Most likely taken in Proctorsville Vermont, they may have worked at the Eagle Hotel or another one of the hotels or restaurants my family ran back then.
I think the building in the rear my be the old bank building that is still standing in Proctorsville.

"Today’s best estimates are that the figures were carved starting in 1912, by the Italian and German woodworkers at the Herschell–Spillman company’s offshoot, Spillman Engineering Corporation. “Our carousel was one of the last to have had its figures carved completely by hand,” Norling said proudly.
"Having survived repeated floods, and the theft of a figure in the 1970s, the Oaks Park Carousel was last refinished almost forty years ago — and has only been touched up since then. "
"“It hasn’t ever been restored like we did this time,” declared Norling, “Eight of our staff members took it apart to sand and hand-etch away layers of paint – taking each piece down to bare wood. Because they cleaned into the crevasses, you can really see the detail in the horses’ manes and eyes.”
Where necessary, workers repaired broken pieces, blending them in with the original wood, as they restored the historic carousel to its original grandeur.
The Oaks Park Carousel is recorded in the National Register of Historic Places, and is said to be one of only 200 classic carousels remaining in the world."

Interesting side note~
In carousels all over the world, there has always been the "favorite" animals to ride. This caused problems with small children all wanting a particular horse... So when Walt Disney put his Carousel in Disneyland... He made all the horses "white" to avoid the problem, and get people on faster so they could start the ride.

Friday and Saturday Morning are usually used by many workers to leave Bandung, back to their origin in smaller cities or even villages around Bandung. Most of them are builders.
Note about this photo: I have promised to start learning digital manipulation for medium-to-advance using The Gimp. Unfortunately, it is not easy enough for me, though I had read several tutorials. Poor, even only to fix over exposure in the background of this photo.

I like this shot because of the facial expression of that worker ... it looks as if he had so much work and he looked exhausted but still happiness was deep inside his heart and he was smiling.
This photo was captured in Dubai Khor , one of the must see places in Dubai.

Safe and Fair, through the Employers' Confederation of Thailand (ECOT), are providing rapid assistance to migrant workers (4,000 survival kits) who are locked inside the construction camps following the order of the CCSA to close all construction sites in Bangkok, its vicinity.
Safe and Fair conducted the initial data collection through our partners in the field which reconcile with the result of the rapid data assessment by IOM regarding the items needed by migrant workers, such as, sanitary items, food, and water. Our survival kits, therefore, consist of sanitary items, food, water and information leaflets on COVID-19 vaccines in migrant languages. ©ILO/ECOT.
